Midlife

Red's Sage Advice is one of the longest-running segments on The Red Green Show, in which Red Green sits behind a desk in Possum Lodge and tells a story to the viewer.

Nearly all of his advice is geared toward men, even though he may be addressing their wives or children in some cases.

Stories vary widely and have included "Apologizing to your wife", "Don't get mad, get even", and "How to avoid becoming an old geezer".

Each segment ended with Red saying the catchphrase: "Remember, I'm pulling for you. We're all in this together."

In The House Raising (Season 6), Harold Green sits in for Red and talks about older men, advising them on how to tell their favorite stories without annoying younger people.

He closes with a variation on Red's signature catchphrase: "Remember, you're on your own. Don't push it."

Because this segment is never referred to by name in the show, "Red's Sage Advice" is given as a working title. Other similar segments include Red's Advice to Teenagers and Buddy System, in which two Lodge members trade off in giving rapid-fire advice to men facing trouble in their relationships.

This segment debuted in Season 4 and ran through the end of the series.
